Intro
A#
Hello
Gm
Uh, it's Ren
Dm
I dont really know how to start this letter...
F**k it
Verse
A#
Is this life really what it seems
Gm
‘cause latley I’ve been in this place between awake and dreams
Dm
I know I only reach out to you when I’m feeling blue
I promise im not using you
I’m just confused
I’ve got some questions I would like some answers to
A#
Like is there meaning to this state of short existence?
Gm
My existential thoughts sure hope there are cause I’m resistant
Dm
to thinking that there won’t be something better in the distance
N.C.
and God is there and afterlife where pain is non existent
A#
If your up there God do you sit upon a throne?
Gm
Or a you a humble soul wearing sandals and tattered clothes?
Dm
Do you mingle with the people like an equal
then on Sundays just kick back and chill and put your feet up?
A#
Did i really choose this life that I’m living now?
Gm
Will my sins be forgiven if I speak them out?
Dm
I won’t lie to you God if there is a heaven,
N.C.
I really hope I get there cause for real it sounds like heaven
Chorus
A# Gm
Reading passed the lines
Dm
I just let go
Dm
Searching for prophets
my faith it is paper thin
A# Gm
So many questions in my mind
Dm
They replay like an echo
Dm
they never stop, my messiah is porcelain
Verse
A#
Dear God
Why do people k**l each other in your name?
Gm
Is it really what you want or have we lost our way?
Dm
Cause it seems like religion can cause division
or people living in prisons of moral values they’re given
A#
What is right and what is wrong?
Gm
am I a sinner if i don't comply with everything that Moses said
or is that dumb?
Dm
And why do people disguise hatred in your name
N.C.
homophobia, a history of violent wars, and causing pain
A#
High priests in their towers stacking riches
Gm
Women burnt at the stake called witches
Dm
In the name of God, Allah, Zeus, Jesus
people claiming lives justified by your alligance
A#
I think it's more complex than good versus evil
Gm
I think that there's both darkness and light inside people
Dm
and through different eyes a man called a terrorist
N.C.
could be a freedom fighter if he’s fighting for the side you’re with
Chorus
A# Gm
Reading passed the lines
Dm
I just let go
Dm
Searching for prophets
my faith it is paper thin
A# Gm
So many questions in my mind
Dm
They replay like an echo
Dm
they never stop my, messiah is porcelain
Verse
A#
So is it ignorant to claim that we know what you want?
Gm
And if I fast for the sabbath, is that what you want?
Dm
Or is tradition just superstition,
religion a human vision just crafted out of peoples ambition, listen
A#
I knew a girl that lost a baby before it was born
Gm
What is the purpose of that God,
what is it for?
Dm
Why did my best friends die
before i hit 25,
is it cause there is something better in the afterlife?
Outro
A#
God, I’ve been feeling suicidal lately
Gm
Mental health is worsening,
feels like it might break me
Dm
If you’re watching, you know that I’ve been strong
but god how much longer do I have to hold on
A#
Please just give me some solace
Gm
so that I know you’ve got my back
Dm
Please just give me some relief
God, is that too much to ask?
